***
Evening. Everybody is sleeping. And I was lying on the bed and starring at the ceiling. I was waiting for the sleepy feeling. But I didn’t want to sleep. I was worrying about Chapman. He might look for us even at night! Ah, what’s if he has already found Johny? No, don’t think about something bad, Magnie!
Suddenly I heard a strange noise behind the window. I put on my clothes quickly and ran into the balcony. I looked around. Nothing was so particular. But I decided to watch out. Perhaps it’s Chapman! I went to my room, took my revolver and went back to the balcony.
There was high tree close to the hotel. I climbed the top of that tree for better looking around.
I looked down. Nothing was so particular.
Suddenly I heard the sound of the shot somewhere under me. I looked down again. I stared at the place and I saw Chapman standing there.
- Are you looking for me? You must know that you won’t stop me! – he shouted looking up at me and ran away.
- So we shall check it just now!
I climbed down quickly and ran after Chapman. He was running away from me. But I tried to find him even in spite of deed night and the darkness. I was running after him and trying to shoot him. But Chapman was moving away from my bullets.
- You’ll fell down tired soon! You won’t stop me! – Chapman shouted to me.
- No! I must not to let you kill Johny! Nothing will catch me! – I shouted as the reply and shot at him.
- Don’t think you can stop me! You’ll be played out soon! And when it happens I’ll kill you! And then I’ll kill your dear Johny! – Chapman shouted and shot at me. I moved away and continued running after him.
I was running after Chapman across the city all night long. I was shooting at him and he was doing the same thing. I couldn’t take aim at him. He was moving from my bullets but I didn’t wanna lie my arms down. But I didn’t catch him. I lost him when it was about 7 o’clock in the morning. I went back to the hotel, went to my room and fell asleep. I slept for about 3 hours. Then we all woke up. I had a bad sleep at first time.
- Good morning, everybody! – Tyson said and looked at me – Magnie, you look rather tired, like you didn’t sleep at night.
- How could I sleep? I was running after Chapman all night long. I didn’t wanna sleep when it was evening. Suddenly I heard the noise behind the window. I went to the balcony and looked down. There was Chapman. I ran after him. I’ve run all over the city. I’m so tired. But I haven’t caught him. I lost him early in the morning. I got back here. I was sleeping for only 3 hours.
- Is it true? Wasn’t it your nightmare? – Desmond asked me.
- If it wasn’t true, I wouldn’t tell you about it.
We went out of our room, went to the ground floor and left the hotel. The Beatles were waiting for us.
Johny and Paul looked at me.
- What’s wrong? What happened? – Johny asked me seeing, how I was looking.
- One thing I can say about it is Chapman. I was running after Chapman all night long. I’ve run all over the city, but I haven’t caught him.
- What a f***ing guy! He’s looking for us even at night! – Paul said. I couldn’t think that he can say the things like this.
- Yeah! If he will continue by this way, I’ll kill myself, not him! – I said. I knew that my last words were the overstatement!
- If you kill yourself, it will be easier for him to kill me! D’you remember this, Magnie? – Johny asked me.
- No of course! It was one of silly things I like to say sometimes! Of course I’ll try to protect all of us. But I can’t say that it will be without fail. Chapman is stronger than me, - I said.
- We’ll try to help you! – Ringo told me.
- Yes! We have some abilities! – Jude said.
- And, as we’ve already spoken about, he won’t be able to overcome all of us! We’ll win anyway! – Tyson said.
We went along the busy street.
There were traffic-jams in all the streets. There were lots of cars and buses. It was too noisily and it was impossible to cross the road.
- Awful! My ears can’t hear all this noise! – I said.
We were walking and looking for Chapman. There were still traffic-jams. It seemed to me that the quantity of cars in the city grew bigger. Oh, it’s good that we’re not driving the car! Standing in the middle of the road and waiting till the momen when traffic will become light isn’t rather simple. But in the places where we could cross the road it was rather bad, too. We needed to go round of all those cars being frightened that each car may go at any sec and hit you.
- I’m tired of all these cars in the places of crossings!!! – Paul said and leaned against the door of bus, which stopped close to us.
We took a little rest.
- So what? Let’s go! We won’t stay here all day long, won’t we? – Johny said.
We all went away.
- Wait for me, please! – Paul shouted.
- What happened? – I asked him. We all looked at him.
Paul was close to that bus and he was trying to tear his hand off it.
- Help! – he shouted.
- What happened? – we asked him and came close to him.
- Help me! It seems I stuck to it!
- How it can be? Were your hands in glue? – George asked him.
- No!!!!!! I don’t know why but I stuck to it! Help me, anybody!!!!!! – Paul shouted still trying to tear his hand off the bus. We all began to help him. But we couldn’t set him free.
- Oomph! What’s with your hands? – Johny asked him.
- I’ve already said I don’t know! – Paul said and touched the bus with his second hand. It stuck to it, too!
- AAA, now this! What’s wrong with my hands? – Paul was shouting his a$$ out.
Suddenly all the cars were driven away. The traffic became light. And that bus, which Paul stuck to, also started.
- AAA!!! HELP ME!!! – Paul shouted, when the bus set up to ride fast.
- Don’t worry! – George shouted.
- What can I doooooooooo?! I stuck to iiiiiiiit! – Paul was shouting – Wiiiiiiill youuuuuu heeelp meeeeee?
We ran after the bus. It was going along the road very fast and poor Paul was stuck to the door of that bus. He was shouting his a$$ out. And I could understand him. If I were he, I’d shout out loud, too.
We were running across the city for several minutes. Suddenly the bus stopped. We stopped running, too. Paul’s hands came unstuck. He fell onto the ground.
- Oomph! I’ve never felt something like this! What was wrong with my hands? – Paul said and stood up.
- I don’t know! – Desmond said – My hands have never stuck to something!
- I can walk along the walls and ceilings, but my hands have never stuck to something! – Ringo said.
- I’m glad to can only turn things on, - Jude said.
- Oh, can I still do something like this? – Paul said and ran to the building nearby. When he was near that building, he touched it with his left hand. Then with right hand. Then he tore his left hand and then he again stuck it to the wall, but 0,5 meter higher. And the same thing with his right hand. And once again. His feet were above the ground. Paul was hanging on the wall by his hands!
- Hey, everybody! Look, what I can do! – Paul shouted and climbed higher – Maybe sticking to some things isn’t rather bad!
He was in 5 meters above the ground.
- Cool! You’re really like a spider! You can climb the walls! I wanna can do this, too! – George said.
- You don’t need to be able to do this! You can grasp the edge of the roof with your “rubber” arm and transfer yourself there! – Paul shouted and climbed down.
We waited for him and went along the street.
- Will we all have some unusual abilities? – Desmond asked me.
Tyson said:
- I don’t know. I feel good without any abilities. But it’s really cool to be able to do all this things that you can do!
- But who is sure that we all will have abilities? Maybe you’ll be able to do something, too! Have you noticed that our abilities are found out at the random or very unsuitable time? – I said.
- I hope that my ability will be found out at the suitable time! – Desmond said.
I looked at him. But I didn’t see him. It was so strange.
- Desmond! Where are you? – Jude asked.
We heard Desmond’s voice:
- I’m here! Can you see me?
- Where are you? I can’t see you! – Tyson said.
We looked around. We didn’t see Desmond anywhere.
- Well. Who can’t understand what a matter is? Where is he? – Ringo asked.
- I’m here! Look! – we again heard Desmond’s voice.
- It looks strange! – Tyson said and went backwards. And then…
- Ow! – Tyson hit someone and fell onto the ground. There was Desmond and Tyson hit him! Desmond fell down, too.
- Didn’t you see me? – Desmond asked Tyson sitting on the ground. He appeared from nothing!
Tyson didn’t say anything. He only nodded his head.
- What’s with you? You look like you’ve just seen a ghost! – Desmond said looking at Tyson’s amazed face.
- It was something like that! It seems to me that you was invisible!
- WHAT? Was I really invisible? – Desmond didn’t believe his friend and looked at us – Didn’t you also see me?
We all nodded our heads.
- Let me try to do this again!
Desmond snapped his fingers and disappeared.
- Is it like that? – he asked.
- Yes! – I said.
- Boo! – it was heard behind Ringo. It was invisible Desmond.
- À-à, what’s this?! – Pingo shouted and moved away.
- You failed! – Desmond said and laughed.
- Desmond! Don’t make poor Ringo wanna cry! – I said to him.
- Can’t I really joke? – he asked. He was visible again.
- Of course you can joke! But you mustn’t make other people scared and wanna cry! – I replied.
We went forwards.
- So what? Two of us have just discovered their own abilities! How will we use them?
We all laughed at him. And we forgot about the main problem – about Chapman. We were walking and laughing when he appeared again.
He ran from the corner and stood up in front of us taking aim at Johny. We all stopped. Chapman shouted:
- Are you having a good time? Your fun ended!
- Not yet! – Jude said, looked at the litterbin, lifted it with his look and shook all the rubbish out onto Chapman’s had. Chapman began shaking his head and at that time we ran away.
- Good idea, Jude! – Tyson said running.
- Thanks! It’s that one that I could do at the moment! – Jude replied.
We were running forwards and grmbl!!!! again Chapman! He stood up in the front of us. When has he caught up with us?
- Why are you running so fast? – he said taking aim at us.
- You mustn’t know why! – Desmond said, became invisible, ran close to Chapman and kicked him.
- Ow!!! – Chapman shouted. He couldn’t see anyone a little closer to him. At that moment Desmond had already went back to us. Amazed Chapman said to us:
- I don’t know how you can do it, but you won’t make fool of me!
- But can we only try to do it? – I asked him sarcastically.
- Don’t talk to me by this way!!!! – Chapman shouted and went to us.
- And what? Will you kill each of us?
- Ha! Not each! You know who’ll be killed!
Chapman caught Johny.
- No! – I shouted and wanted to kick him. But he pushed me off him. I fell onto the ground. Chapman was holding Johny in his arms with his revolver near Johny’s neck.
- Set me free! – Johny shouted trying to get away.
- You’ll lie down your arms or I’ll kill him! – Chapman shouted holding John in his arms.
- No! I won’t let him do it! – I shouted, stood up and again tried to hit him. But he kicked me. I again fell onto the ground.
- Magnie! – Tyson shouted and ran to me.
- I won’t let him do it! – I said and tried to stand up again.
- Magnie, don’t do anything! He can kill Johny and you! – Ringo told me.
- Do you really want to lie your arms down? – I asked – Or have you forgot that we must conquer? Well, you can lie your arms down, but I won’t do it! I have sworn that I’ll stop him and I’ll do it! And I won’t let him kill Johny even if I must die!
There happened very strange thing. Chapman set Johny free and said.
- Well, I won’t kill him today. It is your day, Magness. But it’s not the end! I’ll get back! – Chapman said and turned away.
- What is the meaning of “it’s your day”? Will you really go away and won’t you really kill anybody? – I asked.
- Yes! But you must know that it’s not the end! – Chapman said and went away from us.
We were looking in his direction.
- Is here anyone who also can’t understand what the matter is? – I asked. I thought: «Why has Chapman gone without any fighting? Has he gone “good guy”? Doesn’t he really wanna kill Johny? Or it’s really falsehood?»
Everyone was keeping silence. Johny said:
- It isn’t clear. Everything is so strange. But we have a time for thinking of the things that can happen the future.
We all went forwards. Everyone of us couldn’t understand what it was. Chapman grasped Johny, wanted to kill him and then he went away and left us without any fear. It’s all looked like a lie.
We were walking for about 10 minutes. And suddenly…
- Ta-da! – Chapman again appeared here. He jumped from the corner and shot. It was within one sec.
- Aaah!!! – Johny shouted and fell onto the ground. The bullet has taken aim at his breast.
- Johny! – I shouted and ran towards him. I caught him up before he fell. The boys ran towards me.
- Ah! – Ringo sighed and fell into Paul’s arms. George was standing there like a colonna.

- That’s all! I’ve done it! – Chapman said smirking – John Lennon is dead! And his girlfriend who was protecting him all this time won’t be able to live without him!
Chapman went away laughing. Is it really the end? I couldn’t believe it. Has Chapman really killed Johny? I felt too bad. I haven’t protect Johny just at last minute. Will I really never see his eyes and hear his talking? I haven’t told him that I loved him!
I was holding dead Johny in my arms. My eyes were full of tears. But something was telling me that I mustn’t lose my hope. But what can I do? I can’t turn on somebody who died!
